Multicenter StudyCentral venous catheter-related infection: does insertion site still matter? A French multicentric cohort study.
We aim to evaluate the association between central venous catheter (CVC) insertion site and microbiological CVC complications in a nationwide cohort. ⋯ Low CRBSI incidence rates were reported. CRBSI incidences rates were similar in the three insertion sites. Uncertainty remains due to potential selection bias since many CVCs had to be excluded.
